This Order amends the Housing (Scotland) Act 1987 (“the 1987 Act”) in relation to the right to buy. The amendment is consequential to the amendments made to the 1987 Act by the Housing (Scotland) Act 2010.
Section 140(c) of the Housing (Scotland) Act 2010 adds an additional 2 categories of persons providing accommodation to the list of housing providers at section 61(11) of the 1987 Act, in new subsections (11)(ab) and (ac). Article 2 of this Order amends section 62(3)(b) of the 1987 Act so that references to the word “house” in that subsection include accommodation provided by the persons mentioned in subsections (11)(ab) and (ac), for the purposes of calculation of the discount from market value.
1987 c.26. Section 62(3)(b) has been amended by the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 (c.28), section 157(3)(a) and Schedule 22, and by the Housing (Scotland) Act 2001 (asp 10), section 49.
